Jermaine Eluemunor craned his neck from the passenger seat of his black SUV. He knew he was close to Penn State, so he hoped to catch a glimpse of the mammoth stadium he had heard so much about.

About a mile or two from campus, the junior college offensive tackle out of Scranton (Pa.) Lackawanna saw Beaver Stadium loom over the rolling hills. He said he actually rubbed his eyes around 10 a.m. to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

"When I saw it, I'm like, 'Damn, that's big.' Then I got up right next to it and I'm like, 'Woah, holy ... ," he said, cutting himself short. "They brought me inside then and I got to walk around and stuff, and I got to take pictures. It was amazing."
